Comment:

She is very unorganized and moves very fast at times but overall a very good prof. She is willing to give you a second chance. She grades material extremely quickly. If you dont know CS you cant read the text because it makes no sense. Just do your best and learn how to correctly program and you should do fine in the course.

Comment:

You cant ask for a nicer professor. She is extremely considerate of her students. She understands that most of us dont have a clue and she tries really hard to help us pass. It is like learning a new language but with a teacher that actually wants you to walk out remember something. It you fail; it is 100% your fault because she wants you to pass.

Wow she is not that bad. I have her now for CS 230 and she is really easy. Maybe she goes a little fast but if you pay attention instead of chatting on Facebook you might actually learn something instead of asking questions every 2 seconds.

HATE HER! too fast, she could care less about helping u. she expects us to no how to program a friggin computer already. stupid projects n she doesnt explain directions, she expects us to understand and have it done in one day! DO NOT TAKE HER!! she's horrible and assigns a lot of homework and she thinks her class is the only one that matters

Comment:

She's a nice professor. Knows her stuff. BUT, she's pretty disorganized and well, that tends to confuse the crap outta students. Willing to help you if you need it though, and she does recognize she's not the best professor out there... Shouldn't do too bad in her classes, but yea, be ready to go "WTF" every now and then :(

Good teacher. She goes fast with her lessons but readily goes back to re-explain for those who don't understand. Homework is super easy. Her quizzes and tests are challenging. The projects are challenging as well, yet she does offer help to everyone.

Good teacher, very helpful. Doesn't go too fast and makes sure everyone understands the material before she goes on. You get two projects to do which is simple if you pay attention in class.

Expected to learn excel for my internship this summer. I honestly learned nothing in this class, and really do not like her as a person either. Not the easiest A either

The good thing about her is that you get plenty of time in class to do your homework or surf the 'net. Otherwise, try paying attention to her lectures and zzzz.
